    I use ubuntu on my laptop and PC daily. While the left screen panel (icon panel) is very responsive for both, it seems – through the video demo – that it’s not really that responsive with the mobile version. Quite disappointing. It could be V bad feature ubuntu will likely face if they didn’t take the issue more seriously. Next, the layout is not that sexy compared to the other two mobile OS, really not IMHO. low-grade OS?
